Claiming an Education
I couldn't read this because I have been doing work all day and this was extremely boring/difficult to understand. The only thing I got from this piece was that she was a feminist. What it means to be Educated
In this piece, the author talks about what it means to truely be an educated individual. I thought it was very interesting how he said that it is much easier to form questions than answers, which I agree with him completely on because I can always ask multiple questions about any topic, however, it is much harder to answer them. I also found it interesting how he stated that seat time, test scores, and memorization of many facts did not make one educated because scraps of information are useless unless put to use. Video
This video talks about how IQ tests are not very accurate because there are many different ways to be intelligent. I agree with this because just because somebody has a low IQ doesn't mean that they are lesser of a person than somebody with higher IQ. They could just be a bad test taker, or be gifted in another way.
